I live here, actually less than three miles from the incident. This is section 8 housing, in a relatively rural area. Just to the west is a very high crime area which has almost completely been shut down or bulldozed because businesses could not survive the crime. To the east is a very nice suburban area in a different county jurisdiction than Columbus. Columbus used to be a great city, we get daily multiple murders now. I understand from good sources that this victim knew the “robbers” they were at his apartment. He was involved in drugs and there was a dispute. He supposedly called police, they were there quickly, the assailants ran, the victim came out carrying a gun to shoot his “friends”, although the police did not know this, he was told to drop the weapon, he would not do so and was shot. While this was happening one of the suspects grabbed the police cruiser. So what did you want the police to do?

He wasnt a drug dealer, there was no drugs involved, he didnt know the robbers. get your info straight he was murdered by CPD. I would expect a columbus police officer to tell your that . there scrambling to cover there asses now.
